Digital safety, or cybersecurity, is vitally important. To make that even more clear, Daniël Verlaan, tech journalist at RTL, podcaster and author of the book I Know Your Password, visited Blis Digital on June 12.

At Blis Digital, we invent, design and build software solutions and digital products that are for our customers mission critical are. Security is one of the most important areas of focus here.

Based on our ISO 27001 certification and our secure software development practices, we keep ourselves sharp by regularly organizing internal awareness sessions about digital security. For the June session, we invited Daniël Verlaan as guest speaker. And we knew that!

When he arrived, it immediately became clear — Daniel is looking forward to it! An enthusiastic, down-to-earth guy, very accessible and very enthusiastic, took the floor. He took us into the world of ransomware, one of the most serious problems you can face as a company. Daniel was good at explaining to us how these types of attacks work, what exactly happens, how the criminals work and literally how the business model of these organizations works. Bizarre!

During the session, there was also a lot of room for questions and discussions about measures to prevent these types of attacks and to minimize their impact. All in all, a very interesting and exciting morning.

In addition to the presentation, Daniël also brought his latest book to all colleagues I remember your password. Because the book reads like a thriller and is full of valuable insights and tips, we ordered an additional 50 copies to hand out.

Would you like to receive the book from us? Then send a message to marketing@blisdigital.com (and no, this is not a phishing link 😉). The first 50 mailers will receive the book sent home.
